VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – The UFC‘s late-spring/early-summer schedule is beginning to take shape. MMAjunkie.com is reporting UFC 131 is expected to take place in Vancouver.
Organizers are targeting June 11 at Rogers Arena. They are working this week to finalize the show and venue. Vancouver hosted its first event, UFC 115, in June 2010, after city hall decided to give the controversial mixed martial arts fighting event a two-year trial period.
The show had to resolve insurance and indemnity issues, and had to get approval from the Vancouver Athletic Commission, as well.
